The biggest adventure sports film tour in Europe, the E.O.F.T, continues its journey round the UK. Tonight's screening at The Mitchell Theatre in Glasgow is sold out online but there are still a few tickets available on the door (£14).
Tomorrow (Wed 4th) the tour heads to Edinburgh before returning to London on Friday night (6th) where K2 alpinist Tamara Lunger will be live on stage. Next week there are shows in Sheffield (Mon 9th), Manchester (Tues 10th), another screening in Bristol (Wed 11th) and the finale in Birmingham on Thursday 12th.
The two hour programme of the most spectacular outdoor and adventure sports films from around the world includes special edits of three of the year's best climbing films.
TAMARA: AT THE PEAK OF EMOTIONS 28 year old Tamara Lunger takes on K2, the biggest challenge of her mountaineering career. More than 80 climbers have lost their lives here. Between fear, passion and happiness—this is a portrait of a woman who lives and loves extremes.
1:46: DANI ARNOLD ON THE MATTERHORN Dani Arnold breaks one speed record after another. In 2011 he took a full 20 minutes off Ueli Steck’s best time for the Eiger North Face. Now he’s going after the Matterhorn. But what makes Dani Arnold tick? A fascinating glimpse into the psyche of an exceptional athlete.
A LINE ACROSS THE SKY: WALKING THE LINE IN PATAGONIA Alex Honnold on a rope is a rare sight, but he and Tommy Caldwell chose a real monster for their first major alpine route. Together the pair ventures to the Fitz Traverse in Patagonia, seven pinnacles at frosty elevations that will demand more than just the standard climbing know-how from these two Yosemite veterans.
